Two struggling unseeded players meet in round one of the 2026 Abierto Mexicano Telcel. Adam Walton takes on Aleksandar Kovacevic and both could really do with a good run in Acapulco this week. Time for our match prediction.
Round two of this outdoor hard court tournament will see the winner face either eighth seed Frances Tiafoe or unseeded Nuno Borges.
Adam Walton did reach round two in Delray Beach last week. However, the Australian did need to be reinstated after losing in the qualifying rounds. Six of his last eight matches have ended in defeat with only three victories this year.
Walton is playing in this tournament for the second time but lost in round one last year. He won two qualifying matches and one of those was a three-set win over Kovacevic. He's 87th in the live rankings.
Aleksandar Kovacevic is playing here for the third time with a best of a second round two years ago. The American began this year with a run to the semi-finals in Brisbane but has struggled since then.
He has only won six of his 13 matches played this year. Last week saw him suffer a first round loss to Zachary Svajda in Delray Beach. That was his second successive loss and is 75th in the live list.
We tip more than 0.5 tie-breaks.

Our Adam Walton vs Aleksandar Kovacevic Prediction
There's not a great deal between these two players. Both Kovacevic and Walton have been struggling in recent weeks. Walton even managed to lose twice in Delray Beach last week. He will look to repeat last year's three set victory over Kocavecic here 12 months ago.
Aleksandar Kovacevic would likely win this if he could get back to the form that took him to the last four in Brisbane in January. He's had a series of poor results since then and nearly always ends up in a tie-break. Our Adam Walton v Aleksandar Kovacevic prediction is more than 0.5 tie-breaks.
